ball maze

Tilt-controlled labyrinth game

A ball maze is a puzzle toy consisting of a transparent container—usually a cube or sphere—enclosing a three-dimensional maze through which the player guides a small ball by tilting and rotating the device.

The challenge lies in navigating the ball past holes, dead ends, and obstacles to reach a goal: She spent an hour on the ball maze before finally getting the ball to the center.
